Did the PMBA enduros generally sell out last year? I was hoping not so we could do a few - but don't have my year planned to such a strict timetable to allow me to book them up this early!

Well I'll get home and talk to the MRs. Grizedale and Gisburn are options, definitely can't make Lee Quarry.

They're what, £50 each?

And we're out for dinner at 8 so likely to miss them anyway 😆

Need to re-assert my manhood/fancy a trip in the air ambulance. 😀

If one was a real nancy-boy p&ss-poor rider and looking to survive rather than win....which is the 'easiest' round from a technical skills perspective? 🙂

Grizedale?

Gisburn. some of the off piste stuff at Grizedale is pretty full on.

i really cant get excited about next years racing just yet. im booked on a couple of tweedlove ones and ard rock, but other than that ill pick and choose. there were spare places become available for every round last year.

Lee Quarry / cockhill has been the favorite last few years - will cockhill be included this time with their current predicament??

Yeah Gisburn if you don't like it too techy.

Last one at Grizedale was a toughie, physically and technically.

Might as well link to my race report from it again...

What's this "predicament"?

I hope it's included because those 2 stages at Cockhill were my favourite of the whole year...

So the only one I've entered, No. 3, is now looking dodgy at both Lee Quarry (see other thread) and Cockhill...

Oh well 😥

PMBA aren't daft, I'm sure they wouldn't have scheduled the race if it was dicey.

*fingers crossed for you*

Forgot to ask you if you were doing these again when I saw you today. Signed up for the first two, Lee/cockhill clashes with the Fred (that's if I get a place) unfortunately. 😐
